High-Performance Computing (HPC) systems are of vital importance to the progress of science and technology. Europe has made significant progress in becoming a leader in HPC through industrial and application providers. In addition ETP4HPC is driving a European HPC vision towards exascale systems. Despite such gains, excellence in HPC systems research is fragmented across Europe. Eurolab4HPC has the bold overall goal to strengthen academic research excellence and innovation in HPC in Europe.

• to structure the HPC community by adding members to develop a community of excellence that engages in focused high-quality cross-stack activity;
• to promote entrepreneurship by building an innovation pipeline from general purpose entrepreneurial training, business prototyping, business plan development and helping with funding,
• to stimulate technology transfer by connecting with other technology transfer activities and providing competitive seed funding for HPC technology transfer
• to disseminate community news by investing substantial resources in dissemination activities, creating a stronger Eurolab4HPC brand

This will raise the visibility of the European HPC community, attract more participants and eventually grow the interest and impact of Europe’s Exascale research.

Eurolab4HPC is coordinated by Chalmers University of Technology and involves thirteen prominent research organizations across nine countries with some of the best research teams in HPC in Europe.
